Do I have enough info on my profile?

I hate seeing long, "about me" on some people's pages. People don't even read the short one I have. Is it better for people to contact you to get to know you better?

Also, how do you get people to understand you ONLY want to chat with those in your area? Not out of state, or hours away. Would it be mean to actually state, "If you can't spell or write correctly, I am not interested?" It surprises me grown men will send messages like it's a text. I am not a teenager.

I normally go to other free sites for that. I also hear, some of them have video and live feed.

Pervert.

As you are only looking to make 'friends' (on a site called "Date" "Hookup") what difference does it make what's in your profile?

You already have 28 'friends' attached so it's working just fine. If you wanted more than 'friendship', and to weed out some of the pervs, you could make an effort so the half-decent guys could find some reason to write to you and start a conversation.

OP, do you know another way to get to know someone?

Wait, I see from you post in S&D chats you don’t need to know who you do, its all sound like you are more the hit it and quit it type.

For a woman looking for a man 37 to 53 why are all of your featured friends lesbians except one?

I am not here for sex. I don't mind a date, but I am realistic. Why drive far or live in an imaginary state of an online relationship.

That's why I posted here. Some good advice was passed along elsewhere. I am a naturally shy individual. I kinda wanted to see what the critics would say.

I originally joined this site for women. Most of the women are looking for 3 somes with their man. No thanks!! Finding a mutual woman is a hard, hard area for online dating. I just recently switched my selection over and, honestly, don't pay that listing any mind.

Those S&D chats are 95% word challenges. They are quite fun actually.

When it comes to men. I prefer them older than me. They are gentlemen, knowledgeable on life and I just get along better with them.

No real direction on my review, just questions in why.

Your profile reads now as you are only looking for friends, and you have over a couple of dozen 'friends' already attached.

If you are shy and using the 'friends' excuse to avoid dating rejection, you are holding yourself back. That's a shame. Those that would be interested in dating you will see you are only wanting friends and pass.

If you are actually meeting with/chatting with the women attached to you, great! Good for you. If not, it just seems a great big waste of your time, no? Whatever. Have fun.

People now a days rush into relationships too quickly. Then they wonder why it didn't work out. They have sex too quickly, then move on.

Call me old school... I don't do that. We have to be friends, get to know each other first. Some people who are, "looking for a relationship" are looking for heartache. Most of the time they are taken advantage of. I take my time. Heck, that's how it was at one point in history, when marriages lasted forever.

Sex is sssoooo easy to get. I want a challenge. I want to know what your favorite meal is, and show me how to make it! I want to see the smile on your face when the morning sun hits it. I want to see how good at pool you are and tease you about it. That way, when relations occur, the passion is so intense... it is worth the wait.

I wish my lesbian girlfriend thought like this...

You're not getting what I was implying.

Bottom line, if you are enjoying someone's company, at some point you need to decide if it's 'just friends' or romantic potential. You should know this within a few weeks, or a couple of months at most. The sex part is up to the both if you IF you decide to be a couple.

But...

In the meantime, if you're just spending time with someone, there's no reason to expect that person shouldn't be out dating someone else, right?

I never went on a first meeting with the intent of making a new friend. I have friends. I was measuring the person as a potential partner and, having been gifted with common sense, only one was ultimately worthy. That's was almost 5 years ago.

Your call, of course.

I understood the first time. I have a higher IQ than most. Your "common sense" is coming across as a your own judgement and nothing more.

I don't date people expecting to marry them. If they are out dating someone else, I am fine with that. If there is a connection, the conversation will come up to be with each other, and only each other. Which, yes, occurs within a few weeks.

You shouldn't compare yourself with others. Is the grass greener on the other side? You seem upset with my casual approach. As you stated earlier, this is a date hookup site. If you're so content and happy, why are you here?

A little direction.I would mention the age of your kid or kids, include boys or girls.

I’d suggest UN-featuring Friends. Your featured friends are not exactly the reference a woman gives for a woman seeking a man.

Would add at least one full body shot of you. No explanation should be needed about this.

Expand the written profile

More about you, you really need a lot more about you.

The type of relationship you seek, your profile seem to be in conflict with the comments you make on this thread. Friends in your profile and below is one of your post here. Seems you are seeking more than a friend.

This profile is like a fart in the wind.
You know its there because it smells. Giving it any further direction is imposable.

Now you really need to work on the written part of your profile.
You should include the kids ages, and if boys or girls. No more than that.
A little about you
A little about the type of guy you seek
And add the type of relationship you would like to have.
dating, committed long term or what ever it may be.
